mack Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 At the supporters meeting today a vote was taken on the preferred home end name. The name chosen is Red & Black Bloc. The logo previously in this article was a potential logo, that was not confirmed or brought up. Only the name has been confirmed. Click here to view the article Neverbloom 1
MrJuventus1981 Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 not keen on the name .... but I'm glad that their is an official name now
wilsonpastore Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 i'll definately take that name. so the asylum will not be used at all?
mack Posted July 14, 2012 Author Posted July 14, 2012 Not officially. A vote was taken before that and no-one really indicated they wanted a solution with more than 1 name.
eZZa Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 I voted for The Asylum, but there wasn't much support for it. The chanting of "RBB" did work pretty will though. The name will grow on me!
Llama Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 The RBB chanting was ****ing awesome. Can't wait to be in a huge mob and chanting as we all approach SFS. Sounds really intimidating.
Benched Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 RBB, RBB, RBB, RBB, RBB, RBB Need we say anymore. Neverbloom 1
matty Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 RBB wasn't my preference but it is now. Its who we are so i'm into it 100% Neverbloom 1
julyaugustreno Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 yeah not keen on it BUT wasn't there to vote either which was my choice, so will happily be apart of the RBB and I'm sure it'll grow on me Neverbloom 1
BoxtoBox Posted July 14, 2012 Posted July 14, 2012 Put my hand up for The Asylum, but i was one of about 30%. The majority definatly ruled last night, and to be honesty, when the chant went up for RBB, RBB, RBB....I instantly warmed to OUR new name:) Neverbloom 1
Redhead Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 What time is it?? It's Red & Black O'Bloc!!! Love it! It's Red & Black O'Bloc no matter what the clock says! i love the new logo too. I'm keen to see what esle is suggested, but the one on this page will be hard to beat. Neverbloom 1
julyaugustreno Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 haha that's awesome, I'll chant like I loved it all along.
moxey25 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 If I'm at the stadium and say someone asks me "Where are you sitting?" I will be like "(In the) The Bloc" Handy name I say! Neverbloom 1
Taurus Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Yeah, its great to have a name. Never liked being in a state of limbo ie: TBA. From the minimal feedback I've seen on social media, most of our passive or yet to connect supporters, have embraced the name which has to positive. Neverbloom 1
matty Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 theres already a meme out about the name they're doing it wrong Neverbloom 1
moxey25 Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Struggling to like this name.. going to take a while.. just comparing it to Western Front and The Asylum makes it sound terrible! lol.
Kizza Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 I've only seem people complaining that it isn't family oriented or that its a reference to communism/protests. But it's not supposed to be family friendly anyway so who cares. None of them will be sitting in the home end anyway I'd say. Neverbloom 1
scouseroar Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Awful name. Not because of any 'communist connotations' or any **** like that. Just sounds ****ing dreadful to say. And this is coming from a guy who supports a team called 'Roar' with an active support called 'The Den'. This is worse. Had high hopes for a 'Western Front'/'Western Union'/Asylum nickname. Something with pizazz. This is just bland.
Kizza Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Western Front - Taken Western Union - Really? Asylum - Lost in a head to head vote. Not much else to say really. Since you consider it worse than The Den you can have yourself a field day taking the piss out of it at games then. I don't think anyone here is really going to care a whole lot. Neverbloom 1
DiscoD Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 Not my choice - but I'll support it to the hilt now!! Red & Black Bloc is what and who we are!

wilsonpastore Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 didnt prefer it but RBB is fine. lets just get the memberships out now.
RBBKopite Posted July 15, 2012 Posted July 15, 2012 As soon as the chant went up it made perfect sense. RBB!!!
